commit 5f230f41fdd9e799f43a699348dc572bca7159aa upstream.
We try to reuse the same vsie page when re-executing the vsie with a
given SCB address. The result is that we use the same shadow SCB --
residing in the vsie page -- and can avoid flushing the TLB when
re-running the vsie on a CPU.
So, when we allocate a fresh vsie page, or when we reuse a vsie page for
a different SCB address -- reusing the shadow SCB in different context --
we set ihcpu=0xffff to trigger the flush.
However, after we looked up the SCB address in the radix tree, but before
we grabbed the vsie page by raising the refcount to 2, someone could reuse
the vsie page for a different SCB address, adjusting page->index and the
radix tree. In that case, we would be reusing the vsie page with a
wrong page->index.
Another corner case is that we might set the SCB address for a vsie
page, but fail the insertion into the radix tree. Whoever would reuse
that page would remove the corresponding radix tree entry -- which might
now be a valid entry pointing at another page, resulting in the wrong
vsie page getting removed from the radix tree.
Let's handle such races better, by validating that the SCB address of a
vsie page didn't change after we grabbed it (not reuse for a different
SCB; the alternative would be performing another tree lookup), and by
setting the SCB address to invalid until the insertion in the tree
succeeded (SCB addresses are aligned to 512, so ULONG_MAX is invalid).
These scenarios are rare, the effects a bit unclear, and these issues were
only found by code inspection. Let's CC stable to be safe.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
